As a longtime Texas Renfair go-er and pirate stage builder ; ) I loved this review. Yall did a great job, and you managed one of the craziest weather swing weekends in years with just a pack tent and not even a car! Mad extra points scored there! Next time you come ask a clan to join them for the weekend! We at Call of Booty would love to host ya, and we have plenty of space for tents in our back area away from the party so people can actually sleep!

Thanks so much!! Yea it was the worst weather but I still had such a great time even with the heat. I would love to do something like that in the future, I’m not entirely sure how to go about it in advance though. Perhaps I will hop on over to you guys spur the moment!! Thanks for the offer🫶🫶

Camping tip but bring a tarp to set up your tent on top of! Also, if it's hot out, put your camping mat outside and sleep on top of it.

Hello! Great video. I love how you showed folks it is easy to visit even if you are not local to the area. I have an answer for a question/point of confusion within the video. (I own Queens Pantry and Tea & Strumpets ... thanks so much for voicing your appreciation of our products!) Anyway ... upstairs we have a ticketed High Tea Event at 3pm daily, which involves a full meal with King Henry and Queen Catherine of Aragon (English Court) in attendance. From about 2pm until 5pm we only allow ticketed High Tea customers upstairs. The rest of the day the deck is open to all guests. I hope that helps, and we look forward to seeing you next year!

We like to go on the last weekend, Celtic Christmas. There are lights and decorations everywhere, it's much cooler 😉, and it's the three day weekend! This year we tried to go the weekend before. It wasn't enough time and we didn't plan for it very well. Looking forward to next year!

@starpenta 3 ай бұрын
@@justlanchen just to clarify, when I said 'cooler', I meant the weather. Usually. One year when I went, I was dressed for overcast weather (bad forecast) but the sun came out and I was a little uncomfortable (too warm). Normally it's around the 60's (a little warm for most of the country but down there, it feels great! 😉) and at least, a little cloudy. My husband said he went a few decades ago at the end of hurricane season and he & his first wife caught a massive rain storm and he had a miserable time. However, when I made him go that weekend, he had a much better time. He was less reluctant the following year...FF to now, he looks forward to it 😁

IF you want a longer weekend experience, the last weekend is Thanksgiving weekend and a lot of folks don't reaiize that the Faire is open all day Friday as well as Sat/Sunday., something to consider. As for weather - Welcome to Texas... you said 87 during the day - that's not hot, not in Texas. But yes, the humidity can be high here and that does make it feel uncomfortable even at 87degrees. Later you said temps would drop to mid-50's (at night) - yep. Again, Texas, if you don't like the weather, then wait 5 minutes, it will change. Just have to plan for multiple temp changes in one day.

I've worked renaissance festival in Florida for 23 yrs plus traveling camping in a tent in beginning of my working there in 2002. Don't stay in the tent when it's that's hot . Just a recommendation. It's cooler with wind or shade outside the tent even with the sun directly on you. If it's raining I guess that may be the best choice. Portable fans help a little. Also there's the choice of a pop up if you need to stay out of rain and out of the hot tent. I've always wanted to work at Texas renn faire. I know many who do and have worked it. That's awesome you camped out. I need to get my ass up there maybe next yr or so to work lol. It looks amazing there.

My brother and I slept in separate tents in the parallel rows under the trees. We made camp early on Thursday, and got caught in a monsoon on Thursday night. Felt like floating on air mattresses on top of waterbeds! And it also felt like it was raining inside tents, the downpour and wind were so heavy. In Friday night, it rained again, but nowhere near as bad. We grabbed grub then watched a LARP movie on a tablet under a canopy to help get in the mood. By the time the festival days rollwr daround, we felt like we had already been through an adventure.
